Emirates Stadium
After "living" 93 years at Highbury, which could accommodate about 38,000 spectators, Arsenal moved to the state-of-the-art Emirates Stadium with a capacity of over 60,000 spectators. Emirates Stadium was inaugurated on July 22, 2006, where the legend Dennis Bergkamp played his testimonial match after spending more than 10 years in the club. Highbury was known for the fantastic atmosphere on match days, something that has been difficult to replicate at Emirates Stadium. This mission has looked brighter in recent years, with Arsenal fans' joy for the stadium greater than before.
